Mettle ‎(Cass, Album, Promo, Dol). referencing Mettle, CD, Album, RE, HNCD 1522.

Hugo Largo Format: Audio Cassette. Recorded under Brian Eno's Opal Records in 1989, this second album by Hugo Largo contains the unmistakable beautiful singing of now-popular Mimi (recognized for her participation with Moby and her solo album). Their sound feels like floating in water, or sitting in your mother's womb.

Mettle is the second and final release from art rock band Hugo Largo. It was released by Brian Eno's record label, Opal, on January 1, 1989 and was supported by a European tour following its release. Mettle was produced by then-member and current electronic musician Hahn Rowe.

The menace of "Hot Day" abuts the beauty of "Jungle Jim" and the playfulness of "Turtle Song" (the one single from the album, bearing bonus tracks that should have been reissued). Mimi Goese draws out one word, then another, making musical loop-de-loops with the syllables, causing the listener to hang on every word for some sort of meaning. One wonders what could have come out if the group had continued, but Mettle is satisfying enough as an epitaph.

Hugo Largo was an American musical group known for their unique line-up: two bass guitars, a violin, and singer/performance artist Mimi Goese. The band formed in 1984, initially featuring Tim Sommer and Goese. Later they were joined by Hahn Rowe and Adam Peacock, releasing an EP called Drum in 1988. Michael Stipe produced the EP and also sings backing vocals on two tracks. This was Hugo Largo's last album before their initial breakup, although a later 1991 lineup wrote and recorded new material for a third, never-released album.
